Chapter 565 Surrender or die

Whoosh!

Following the voice, Durden flew out of the valley and gracefully landed beside Max.

"Is she alright?" He asked, glancing at Ellie.

Max, however, acted as though he didn't hear him, and continued looking at Ellie as blood red mist gathered in the depths of his eyes, giving them a malevolent look. At the same time, his heartbeat rose, his blood started churning in his veins like a raging river while his murderous intent spiked uncontrollably.

Durden frowned, a little displeased, but seeing how Max was staring at Ellie's face in a daze, he shook his head and raised his head to look at the dwarf demons. But just then, a strange sensation of oppression enveloped him, which made his blood run cold.

"An emperor?" His first thought was that an emperor demon had arrived as king ranked mages and demons weren't strong enough to give him such a feeling. He immediately raised his guard up, took out a violet short sword and cautiously looked around. However, he found no one apart from the dwarf demons, Max and Ellie.

Just when he was feeling puzzled, the feeling of oppression became stronger. Right then, his gaze landed on Max, his heart skipped a beat and his expression changed because he had realized Max was the source of oppression he was feeling.

'Is he...' An ominous feeling welled up in his heart. "HEY, SNAP OUT OF IT!!" Slap!

Immediately, he let out a loud shout and slapped Max's shoulder hard.

"Hm?" The slap sent a jolt running through Max's body, which caused the rid mist in his eyes to disperse, and woke him up.

When the dwarf leader heard this, his eyes flickered. However, when he looked at Durden, there was no change in his expression aside from a faint mocking smile on his lips.

Seeing this, he hesitated for a while, before saying in a low, yet cold tone, "We won't give you our knives. If you don't let us leave safely, we will fight you all to death. You should know, if we go all out, apart from you and that pretty boy over there, all others will die."

Hearing this, the four-star male elf snorted in disdain, and released his aura, "Overconfident fiend! Do you believe I can kill you with a single attack?"

Other elves also shouted, ready to attack. Emily looked on calmly while Max had an unpleasant expression on his face. He wanted to kill all the dwarves to avenge Ellie, but he could tell Durden must have a reason for not wanting to fight. Just when he was thinking this, he received a voice transmission from Durden. "Stop your people. We can't afford to waste any time fighting them. Two groups of demons are headed this way. They have multiple four-star experts amongst them. If we don't leave immediately, all of us might die here."

Max's expression changed when he heard this. He immediately closed his eyes and expanded his senses, but didn't sense anyone nearby. Durden raised his brows in confusion when he noticed this. 'Is he trying to sense them?'

As this thought appeared in his mind, his eyes flashed with surprise because he could tell Max wasn't using his mana sense, and since he was just a three-star mage, he couldn't have Divine sense, this could only mean he was using his Natural sense.

'Don't tell me his natural sense is stronger than his mana sense?!' Suppressing his surprise, he sent another voice transmission to him, "Don't bother. They are still a few miles away. You won't be able to sense them."

Hearing this, Max opened his eyes, and stopped the four-star elf, "Stop. Let Mr. Durden talk."

The four-star elf looked at him in confusion, but when he noticed the grave look in his eyes, he stepped back.

Seeing this, the leading dwarf became even more confident, and revealed a mocking sneer, 'You want to intimidate us when you don't dare to fight.'

However, in the next moment, his sneer froze and chill ran down his spine because he saw Durden grin, before he disappeared from the view. 'Not good!' .
